The Arista DCS-7060PX5-64 is built for data centre spine fabrics that need dense, high-speed connectivity in a compact footprint. Its 32 OSFP ports and hot-swappable PSUs help teams expand AI and storage networks with fewer rack units while keeping cabling simpler.
As fabrics grow denser and east-west traffic becomes harder to place efficiently, infrastructure teams need more high-speed paths in less space while keeping operations predictable.
The Arista DCS-7060PX5-64 is a spine switch for AI, cloud and storage fabrics where 400G connectivity, compact rack use and steady traffic handling matter in production.
Its 32×OSFP port layout supports 2×400G per port, giving teams a practical way to build breakout designs and keep cabling under control. The 25,600Gbps switching capacity provides the headroom needed for busy spine layers.
With hot-swappable PSUs and a dense 1RU footprint, the platform helps simplify maintenance and preserve service continuity. It supports larger fabrics with fewer rack units and gives operators more room to expand without adding another switching layer.
Our team can help you assess where the Arista DCS-7060PX5-64 fits in your fabric design and plan a deployment that matches your growth and operational targets.
The Arista DCS-7060PX5-64 is a high-capacity networking platform for data center switching environments, providing a compact foundation for scalable fabric design and operational consistency.
Compact 400G Access
The platform provides 32 OSFP ports with 2×400G per port, supporting dense high-speed connectivity in data center switching deployments.
Aggregate Switching Capacity
A 25,600 Gbps switching capacity supports large-scale east-west traffic flows within a fabric architecture.
Dynamic Routing Support
Dynamic routing capability enables the switch to participate in routed network designs without fixed-path constraints.
High-Bandwidth Pod Design
The port and capacity profile suits aggregation and leaf/spine architectures that require concentrated bandwidth at the network edge.
Routing Flexibility
Dynamic routing allows the platform to adapt to changing network topologies and traffic paths in routed switching environments.
Fabric Integration
The switch is designed to fit into data center fabrics where switching and routing functions must operate consistently at scale.
Deployment Consistency
The platform architecture supports repeatable network design across new and refurbished variants of the same model.
If you are planning a high-bandwidth switching layer or a routed data center fabric, our Arista experts can help align the DCS-7060PX5-64 to your topology and traffic profile.

The Arista DCS-7060PX5-64 is a high-radix 400G switching platform for dense data centre fabrics, media production networks, financial analytics estates and service-provider labs that need many fast paths in limited rack space.
In AI and GPU pods, infrastructure teams need many 400G links with strong path diversity and minimal footprint. This platform supports compact leaf-spine designs where east-west traffic between accelerators and storage must stay predictable under load.
Media facilities use it where render nodes, ingest systems and finishing suites all hit shared storage at once. The dense 400G layout helps reduce contention during project peaks and keeps the core fabric manageable for lean operations teams.
Financial platforms see short, intense bursts from market-data replay, simulation and backtesting. The DCS-7060PX5-64 gives teams a low-latency aggregation layer with enough radix and buffering to absorb traffic spikes more predictably.
Software teams can build repeatable labs for AI development, distributed builds and private-cloud validation without adding another switching tier. That matters when many mixed-speed endpoints must be recreated often by small platform teams.
Telecom engineering groups need dense 400G connectivity for NFV, MEC, packet generators and appliance validation. This switch helps keep cabling under control while giving test environments the port density needed for fast iteration.
We can help design and deploy an Arista DCS-7060PX5-64 fabric for AI clusters, production media, finance, development labs and telecom test environments, with the right topology, scale and recovery approach for your operations.
